The Klutzy Class Monitor and the Girl with the Short Skirt
So then my little sister...
That's so funny!
I haven't gotten to the punchline yet.
Cold, cruel times.
Bad times to come.
Napolitan.
What's gotten into you, Akina?
You've started spouting really lame gags.
I'm short on Bucchium.
Huh?
It's not enough.
Not nearly enough.
Bucchi? You mean the health representative, Izubuchi?
What do you mean you don't have "enough"?
You have it good, Poe.
Sakuradaimon-kun stands at the school gate every morning.
Wha?!
But I have to live out my days fooling myself
by gazing at this photo of us several dozen times a day.
Wait, she was serious about Izubuchi?
All right, Poe!
Why don't we go set the stage for her? We're bored, anyway.
So good.
Akina, leave it to us!
They get very motivated when it's for others.
The Klutzy Health Representative and the Schoolgirl Who Slips Often
Hey, hey, big man Izubuchi.
Huh? Oh, it's just you girls.
Don't come here unless you have business here. Got it?
We do have business here. A patient.
See Akina here?
She twisted her ankle during gym again.
What?
You again, twin-tails?!
C'mon. Hold out your foot already.
H-Hey!
It's okay, it's okay.
Let's see.
Huh?! It ain't swollen anywhere.
Did you actually twist it? C'mon.
Bucchi is touching my bare feet!
But I sweat a bunch during gym.
What if it smells?
Don't smell them, Bucchi!
Don't smell... my feet!
What the hell are you doing, you idiot?!
I-I'm so sorry!
Hey, wait a damn second! Hey, come on!
We're sorry!
Physical contact is too much for me still.
I'm overdosing on Bucchium.
You damn wuss!
Then you're all good now?
That means you're satisfied?
Ah! Wait, wait!
Then at least...
There he is. Bucchi detected!
Why don't you just ask him for a photo like a normal person?
No way! Secretly taking a photo from a distance is more than enough!
No, that's stalking!
I'd be a crazy person if I took them by myself,
but it's kind of safe in a group, right?!
It's still stalking no matter how many people there are.
Now! My photo op!
My perfect shot!
Why are you barging into the photo, you klutzy class monitor?!
Izubuchi, perfect timing.
Huh?
Calm down, Akina!
Hey, try again!
You're injured?
Ah, dammit!
Hey! Jeez!
This time!
Move, damn you!
Move what?!
Quit blocking every shot!
What are you even talking about, Poem-san?
Ah, it's you!
Listen, about earlier...
Retreat!
Wait!
Could you send me that last photo later?
Tasaki's into BL.
I never did manage to get a good photo.
Worse yet,
I injured Bucchi.
Whoa.
Oh, sorry!
Are you okay?
If you'd like, we could buy you some ice cream?
Huh?!
No, it's fine, it's fine!
Yeah, it'll be fine, no biggie.
Let us make it up to you.
You're cute. D'you go to a high school nearby?
You don't need to worry.
I really like twin-tails.
I'm honestly okay!
Huh?
Later!
Hey, hey, you okay?
You shouldn't run so fast.
Today's the worst!
I get it, okay?!
I was in the wrong!
I won't stalk people anymore!
And I won't kick others in the chin!
So...
Wha?!
What the hell are you doing to my girl, you ignorant turds?!
It's the Reiwa era and he's wearing a gang jacket?!
Damn, this guy's the real deal!
Later!
Izubuchi-kun.
Huh?!
I knew it.
You're ankle's sprained again, isn't it?!
Huh?!
Doing this in the middle of the street is too much!
Heading back to school is a pain.
Direct me back to your place.
R-Right.
Um, Izubuchi-kun, sorry about what happened today.
And thank you.
It's nothing.
Don't worry about it. It's my job as the health representative.
More importantly, when I looked at your foot earlier...
D-Did it stink?
You have no muscle there, and you're a bit flat-footed.
In other words, you're prone to slipping and falling.
So stop fool around too much. That, or exercise more.
Understand, you idiot?
Y-Yes.
Um, Izubuchi-kun?
Could I ask you one favor?
Morning!
Oh, you seem in high spirits today, Akina.
Did something good happen?
Well, my meals are going to be quite delicious for a while!

You're touring the school?
My school?
Well, yeah.
You want to go to the same school as your older sister?
You two are such close sisters, no matter how old you get!
My daughters are so cute!
That's not it at all.
It's just because it's close to home.
The entrance exam seems easy too.
Well, that guy did manage to get in too.
So that's why I'll be going to tour the school this Sunday.
What, on a Sunday?
Sorry, but I won't be going with you then.
No, it's fine if you're not there.
However, the next day...
Faculty Office
Poem-chan was assigned supplementary lessons on Sunday.
Why?! Dammit!
I'll have to try to avoid running into Lyri.
Oh, that's right...
Taking More Supplementary Lessons With the Klutz on the Day Her Little Sister Is Touring the Klutz's School
Students from our neighboring middle schools!
Today, we welcome you to a tour of our school!
Our school puts special emphasis on our committee and club activities.
Hey, that older student's cool!
Her tits are huge!
High schoolers are amazing!
Now, let me show you around the school!
Follow me!
Oh, sorry. I need to use the restroom.
Seriously? Should we wait for you?
I'll be fine. Go on ahead.
Math Lessons
No one's here.
It's just like last time.
If I didn't get supplementary lessons that day...
I might never have started talking to that guy.
Oh, Poem-san?
Hey, Togo.
You wound up getting supplementary lessons again, huh?
What, got a problem with me being here?
No, it's not—
Well, I guess I do.
Getting supplementary lessons isn't exactly a good thing.
So why did you just walk in here with a grin on your face?
Huh? Did I do that?
Are you sure a class monitor should be coming to supplementary lessons
with such a casual attitude?
You have a point. I'm sorry.
It was wrong of me to enter with a smile.
I just had a feeling that you might be here,
and that subconsciously brought a smile to my lips.
That's proof I'm being too lax.
I'll be more careful.
Just forget about it and have a seat already!
Pardon us!
Morning, Poe!
All right, let's all do our best!
You girls are here?! Since when?!
We just got here.
Sorry you two don't get to be alone.
Um, hello...
Are you a student at this school?
Huh?
Uh, I'm not...
My! That was terribly rude of me then.
Oh, are you here for the introduction to the school?
Bold of you to show up at this point.
You're really late.
Yes.
It's embarrassing to admit, but I overslept.
Well, whatever.
Let's go together.
Your uniform's from Nakate Middle, right?
And yours is from Shirahata Middle!
I'm Kohinata.
Uh, what should I call you?
Me?
My name is Kikuka.
My friends call me Kicchan.
Why did she introduce herself with her first name and a nickname?
Should I call her that?
Kikuka-san, you're a bit ditzy, aren't you?
Do you get that often?
Wow! I'm surprised you could tell.
To be honest, I am rather troublesome.
I'm extremely bad with mornings, so all elementary school,
my diligent brother, who's one year older than me,
would kindly wake me up every morning.
He even went to school with me.
But ever since my brother moved up to high school,
I haven't been able to wake up at a decent time once,
and I'm always on the verge of being late.
Wow, that's awful.
I know things can't stay this way,
so I've made up my mind!
I have to go to the same high school as my brother
so I can match my schedule to his once again!
That's bold of you!
I have a sister a year older than me who goes to this high school,
but I'd never think about going to school with her.
My! You have an older sister too, Kohinata-san?
Then maybe your sister and my brother happen to be friends!
That would be so lovely!
I'm sure the two of us will become great friends! Don't you agree?!
R-Right.
Oh no, this girl's a little draining.
I need to get back to everyone soon.
Math Lessons
Man, those midterms were tough!
Well, they sure were.
I bombed every subject!
Akina, that's real bad.
So you have supplementary lessons too, Sakuradaimon-kun?
Were you one who botched them too?
I'm deeply embarrassed!
That's okay!
Let's all study together for the next exams!
Great idea!
We can meet up at Poe's house for the first time in a while!
What's the point having idiots study together?
Sakuradaimon-kun, you want to go to Poe's house too, right?
Yes, I do.
Her home was so lovely
that I relaxed and lost track of time when I visited the other day.
Wha?!
I'd love to say hello to her parents and sister again sometime.
When did you two manage to get that far?!
Wait, how did you end up going to her house?!
My mother dragged him in—
Say hello to her "parents"?!
You also met the father who loves his girls too much?!
Of course. We conversed with our fists.
Quit running your mouth!
I'm sorry.
Hey, isn't the teacher running late?!
When are these lessons going to start?!
Squeak.
Tsukishima?! When did you get here?!
Huh? I've been here for a while.
I was here before you all started acting like you're in some cozy rom-com.
Huh? You mean you're here for supplementary lessons too?
Hey!
Hey, hey!
Don't treat me like the rest of you!
I'm going to punch this guy.
So what are you here for then?
Beats me. Here to get punched?
Please wait, Poem-san.
Before you resort to violence, I'll try getting it out of him.
Tsukishima!
Well, they're actually having a tour of the school today.
So even though it's my day off, I was asked to show them around the library.
So I got here a little earlier, and ran into the math teacher, Murata-sensei.
Any book works for you, huh?
My class always does this when we need to talk to Tsukishima.
He said today's lessons are free study,
and you can all go home once you've done these assignments.
Now, I have work to do as the library assistant, so I'm leaving.
Man, I don't care anymore.
I'm handing out the assignments.
Hello, welcome to my castle, middle schoolers!
This is our proud library,
boasting the largest space and collection in the city!
That library assistant is cool!
Have a good look around.
High schoolers are awesome!
The books are bored too.
Library assistant!
Good work coming in on your day off!
It's nothing.
It was for the sake of my cute future underclassmen.
Thank you so much!
Man...
She called me in to man the library on a Sunday,
and she's not even here herself! How laughable!
Mumble, Mumble
She even tasked her gorilla with thanking me, that audacious, old hag.
Well, before I go home, I'll need to straighten up the books
those brats touched so carelessly. What a pain.
Hey, what's the matter, my lost little kittens?
Everyone else already went on ahead.
I feel like someone else was here, but did I imagine that?
My, so this is the library?
How lovely!
Let's take this chance to look around.
Come on, let's just go, Kikuka-san!
We shouldn't hang around someone so suspicious!
But that man was so interesting with all of his expressions.
Expressions? His actual bone structure changed!
Math Lessons
Man, all the people on this school's committee are weirdos, aren't they?
Hey! Any injured brats in here?!
Here's another weirdo!
What's up, Izubuchi?
Huh?
Guess there's none here.
We have middle schoolers touring the school today,
so that gorilla woman asked me to be here on standby in case.
Then shouldn't you be waiting in the nurse's office?
Huh?!
Middle schoolers always get into fist-fights as soon as your back's turned.
If I don't patrol, there'll be wounded folk everywhere.
Don't assume everyone's like you were in middle school!
Well, whatever.
If no one's injured, then I'm done here.
Later. Give it your best at least.
Huh?
Wait, don't you have to take supplementary lessons?
Huh? Why would I?
That's only for people with bad test scores.
Later.
Despite how he acts, Izubuchi-kun is smarter than everyone else here.
You know...
We should get to work.
Right.
I wonder where everyone went.
Oh!
Over there.
Let's chase after them!
Yeah!
Kikuka-san?!
Are you okay?
Don't go runnin' in the halls, you damn brats!
Come on!
There are delinquents at this school?!
We're sorry!
Come on, let's go, Kikuka-san.
I'm truly sorry about that.
Wha?!
Huh?! Hey you! You're not injured, are you?!
Let me have a look!
H-H-Hey!
Huh? Shut up, brat!
Now be good and come with me!
To the nurse's office.
That's enough already! She's apologized!
It's all right, Kohinata-san!
This man is the health representative!
Health (And Dignity) Committee
It says so on his back!
A health representative wouldn't have it embroidered on his back!
Let's go!
Right!
Ah, hey!
Whew, all done.
What are you all doing after this?
I'm just going home.
I have more supplementary lessons after this.
I have to help with the tour of the school.
I see, I see.
Then I guess I'll go poke my head in on the club room.
So, Sakuradaimon-kun,
go accompany Poe to the school gates.
Huh?!
Is something wrong, Poem-san?
Shh! My little sister is here for the tour today!
I'm trying to avoid running into her,
since I'd lose face for having supplementary lessons!
Huh? My little sister should be here for today's tour too.
Seriously? I can't even imagine what she'd be like.
We should be okay now that we're this far away.
Kohinata-san, you're incredible.
You run so fast.
Oh, sorry, I accidentally ran all out.
Well, this is still an incredible school.
Yes, it's just like my brother said.
It's a very fun school.
My brother is earnest and kind,
but he's too diligent, and he didn't smile very much before.
Though ever since he entered high school,
he now says, "Every day is lots of fun."
And he tells me what happened that day with a big smile on his face.
Pudding-san, was it?
He became friends with someone who had a charming name like that.
I'm really not one to talk, but that's a horrible name.
My brother said it would suit me well.
So I wanted to see what this school is like!
I see.
The track team here is good,
and I wanted to pursue it seriously.
My sister doesn't know anything about that kind of stuff,
so I did my own research.
How lovely!
I'm sure you can win, Kohinata-san!
Win what?
I hope we're both able to go here.
Yeah.
I think I'd have fun here with you, Kikuka-san.
My name is Kohinata Lyric.
Remember it if we see each other again next year.
What a lovely name!
I'll never forget it!
Oh?
Huh?
Oh my!
Big sis!
Big brother!
Lyric-san really loves you, doesn't she?
Wanting to attend the same school as you.
It's not like that.
She does track and field at middle school, so she probably wants to join the team.
Our school's team is strong, right?
I see.
So that's the real reason she runs every morning.
It'll be even livelier if my little sister and Lyric-san join our school.
Our supplementary lessons were already a bit on the annoying side.
It was fun.
Though it was a bit of a shame.
Huh? How so?
I thought it would be just the two of us today.
Honestly, this guy...
Wh-What was that for, Poem-san?!
Are you okay?
Your face is bright red.

It's nothing.
It's just hot out today.
We are firmly into summer now.
Yeah. I wonder where I should go hang out with Tazaki and them...
You've got no plans, right?
Want to join us?
Huh? Can I?
I'd love to!
Though let's pick a healthy time and place that befits high school students!
What? What kind of place is that?
